Organizing the Fabric Stash

January 4, 2009 by Tsoniki 8 Comments

I used to think I had a lot of fabric.

After folding the many fat quarters I have and organizing my quilting fabric, I have two shelves worth. I do have more fabric in one large rubbermaid container in the closet, but this is the stuff that’s been out and about in the room. I spent a few hours a few days ago cleaning up and reorganizing. I know I needed it when I was stamping the perpetual calendar and not finding tools I know I had! It was frustrating trying to work when it took me just as long to find what I needed to use!

The next step is to put the various projects into large zip lock bags. I don’t have too many for now so I’m thinking zip lock bags and then the bags into a larger bin or container. I have lots of empty containers so that’s ready to go.

Has the organizing bug hit you yet this year? I also went through all the kids clothes and threw away some that were in horrible shape and got a bag full for giveaway!

    Keep the organization tips coming! Those are always helpful! We’ve moved so much the past few years that my crafts have been relatively organized in bins and I always have a craft closet…which I will not here once HHG gets here.

    I’ve gotten better at keeping my yarn stash organized and using up old yarn though.
